Storybook

Listen to me, I have beautiful dreams I can spin

Dreams to linger within you

Close your eyes and we'll ride my carousel

I'll sing you stories of lovers whose love used to fill me

And the lovers who will be

For, you see, love is one thing I do well

Come, let's believe love can be just as sweet as it seems

Let's live on dreams

In my dreams, such beautiful lovers have found me

Storybook lovers surround me

Nothing is real, but I'm flying

Sighing, "Where, where, where is my storybook ending?

Why does my golden pretending

Leave me with nothing to hold but my dreams?"

Oh, is it only in dreams that we find our ideal love? (Ideal love, ideal love)

Are there lovers with real lives? (Are there lovers with real lives?)

If you know how to feel love, show me how (Show me love, show me love)

Ah, but my prince, if you can't be as sweet as you seem

I'd rather dream!

Come and wake me! Come be the love I can hold now!

Storybook love leaves me cold now

Show me the way to stop dreaming

There is only one perfect storybook ending

That is the end of pretending

That is the moment I say, "Love me now"

Et sur mon manège, l'amour toujours est chantant

De mes rêves c'est le commencement

Et j'espère une fin heureuse

Mais la fin, la fin de l'histoire ne vient pas très doucement

Pour l'histoire, il faut faire semblant

Certes, je n'embrasse que mes rêves, seuls mes rêves
